+ <background>
+ <p>MCollective is a framework to build server orchestration or parallel job
+ execution systems.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>A vulnerability was discovered in MCollective which allowed for
+ deserialized YAML from agents without calling safe_load. This allows the
+ potential for arbitrary code execution on the server.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the
+ privileges of the process or cause a Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All MCollective users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-admin/mcollective-2.11.0"
+ </code>
